Police: Man killed in Ravenswood, 3 hurt in separate shootings

A man was shot to death in the Ravenswood neighborhood Sunday and three other people were wounded in separate shootings, including a teenager who walked into a hospital after being shot Saturday.

Most recently, about 6:35 p.m. Sunday, a man died after someone shot him in the head in the 2200 block of West Winnemac Avenue, on the city's North Side, said Chicago Police Department News Affairs Officer Hector Alfaro.

The man, 21, was taken in critical condition to Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center and was later pronounced dead there, police said.

Police found the man in an alley after responding to a call of a person shot in the area. Witnesses told police the man was in a company of several males and that a red SUV was seen fleeing the scene, police said.

The 21-year-old had a documented gang affiliation and had been arguing with people in the SUV before he was shot, police said. He suffered a single gunshot wound fired from a close range.

The Cook County medical examiner's office identified the man as Dushanti Hassell, of the 5700 block of North Kenmore Avenue of the Edgewater Beach neighborhood.

Earlier, a 46-year-old man was outside in the 700 block of South Kenneth Avenue in the city's Lawndale neighborhood when two vehicles drove past and someone inside one of them fired shots in his direction and he was hit in the mouth, police said.

The bullet is lodged in his jaw, but he is expected to survive. He was taken to John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital of Cook County, where his condition had stabilized, police said. The shooting happened at 1:20 p.m. and police initially responded to a battery in progress. Detectives are speaking with someone who is not believed to be the gunman.

A 17-year-old male teenager walked into Community First Medical Center on Sunday afternoon after being shot Saturday evening in the Galewood neighborhood on the Northwest Side, police said.
